I could just scream I am so excited!! Tony and I fell into a great deal going to the Big Island of Hawaii in March. We just couldn't pass it up, especially since all the cards seem to be aligned for us to go. We will be staying a full week at the beautiful http://www.hiltonwaikoloavillage.com/. Oh the warm sand between our toes, why aren't you here right now?!?!
This morning I had my 12 week appointment with my doctor. I am officially 12 weeks and 3 days pregnant, moving right along! The best part of the appointment was being able to hear the babies heartbeat. How can you not cry and feel such a sense of relief? I finally feel like I can relax and enjoy this new life inside of me.
I also had lost 2.5 pounds which I wasn't surprised due to the fact I still can't eat much. I am starting to feel better and my appetite is coming back but I still can only eat small amounts of things. I think my stomach is growing but it's hard to tell when it wasn't so small to begin with. I'm in that in between stage where people are wondering hum, maybe she could be expecting or is she just gaining weight. Makes me laugh!!
Other than that, life is crazy as usual at the Cefalo house. The kids are back in their routines and busy as ever. Will life ever slow down? I can't complain because I love it all, especially that husband of mine!!!
I don't know about you all, but I feel like all I have heard lately is bad news mixed with a slight bit of good. Even our yucky inversion here makes you just feel yucky. I decided that it is about time to share some good news, lift our spirits for a minute. Ready?
We are proud to announce the newest Cefalo will be joining our family sometime around August 16. Yep, I have a bun in my oven, isn't that great?! Why is that you feel so blessed to be carrying a new life and at the same time very angry inside that you have to be so darn nauseous all the time? I have come to love cereal and peanut butter sandwiches because they really don't have a smell and actually taste so good. Hopefully as my first trimester is about coming to an end in roughly 2 weeks I'll start feeling good again.
I had my first ultrasound a couple weeks ago and everything looked great. We feel so blessed and are so excited for our new addition!!
Misty and Amber have been both going to the orthodontist now for several months. Misty actually a tad bit longer but who's keeping track. Misty has this really cool contraption in her mouth called the "spider", she doesn't think it's so cool.

I just had to share the cutest picture of the two youngest Buck grandchildren. My mom bought Lizzy (Renn's youngest) and Logan (Chad's son) the cutest Santa and Mrs. Claus outfits. After many attempts for a picture together this is what we got. How can you not love these two!!
Hope that everyone had a very Merry Christmas and is looking forward to a Happy New Year. On Sunday, we had the special experience of honoring Aarone in receiving his Eagle. Along with Aarone, another boy recieved his also. We were so proud of him and his accomplishment. We were happy to be able to celebrate and let him receive the recognition he deserved.
